Sinema should be nervous. New polling released by Data for Progress clearly demonstrates the frustration Arizonans are feeling with Sen. Kyrsten Sinema—she is trailing in overall favorability ratings. Sen. Mark Kelly and Pres. Biden, on the other hand, are both overwhelmingly popular in Arizona.

Not a single Republican voted for this program. Here’s what you need to know: -If you’re eligible (making less than $200,000 […]
The ocean’s on fire. A major underwater pipeline burst in the Gulf of Mexico, sending boiling flames to the surface of the ocean on Friday. The fire has since been extinguished, but the video captured from the scene is truly unbelievable—yet another example of why we must divest from fossil fuel reliance and pass bold climate crisis solutions.

For the past couple of months, Senator Sinema has been a vocal supporter of the filibuster, an arcane procedural rule in the Senate that was used to block civil rights legislation in the Jim Crow era. In recent years, it’s been overwhelmingly used to block popular […]
